Even before the patch PVP numbers have dropped significantly but after the Patch and the continuous long load screens and complete arrogance from the devs and outright basic refusal to explain the situation I honestly do not see PVP recovering from this on console at this point I'll be surprised if there is an patch to fix this until the next update just my opinion

    If it was an infinite loading screen into the crown store it would have been fixed by now..

    Glorious days of PvP was when there was NoCP PvP - I had to wait two hours to get to any PvP server...

    Is it only me that can spot this strange thing “novody wants CP in PvP”?

    That moment when the world really needs a Mr Holmes in every house.

    I think you're not on console, or you haven't been in pvp yet. You can't travel or rez without having to force

    Soooo, everybody wants no cp pvp do they... “evil chuckle”

    Beg to differ on that one, they were soooo popular that they were dam near empty, it was great for hunting sky shards and lore books, some days it felt like I was the only player on the server. I got emperor on a campaign without fighting anyone. Just walked round first thing in the morning and took every castle, resource etc and never met anyone except for a few other faction players doing the same thing. We didn’t bother fighting as there didn’t seem much point. Meanwhile the remaining cp campaigns were all full at prime time and pve was rammed on pc eu

    Face it, no cp is a bust, players are not going to give up their bonuses no matter what. Besides, pvp was always the side show, pve pays the bills because it makes all the cash. Getting pvp into elder scrolls was never going to be anything but a drop in the bucket. It’s not a priority anymore. PVE is the great cash cow. Simple as that.

    Yes the devs struggled to get It to work, yes they made mistakes, socking big ones, but that wasn’t the only thing that killed it.

    It was also the elites, the 0.001%, the kind of bullying scum that think it’s funny to slaughter noobs over and over! Never once did they consider that those very noobs were vital to keeping the population alive, and so over time pvp dwindles because less people are willing to play it. Who in gods name is going to shovel the time to create their build only to get one shotted over and over by some arrogant git who is so far ahead of them on the power and skill scale that it’s almost comical :/

    There has always been zergs. The issue is the cap on abilities (although some abilities would need readgusting) and the sets they built to be zerg crushers but ended up buffing the zerg instead.

    I understand some like cp some like no cp and I play solo or with one other person so u should know how I feel about zergs but we are in a way worse situation with these long load screens or should I say indefinite load screens no CP or CP doesn't matter Solo or group play we all get the long load screen we actually need Unity on this this has to be fixed

    I don't know about console but we're still having loads of fun on PC, even if the meta is a little bleh. Let's be honest, the meta is always a little bleh.

    On PS4 I am trying to play still but getting old resetting every travel or death.
    In another infinite loop right now. /sigh
    Doesn't seem to be server load related, code is hanging in the load screen.

    BGs lit, tho. I still prefer no-CP but I can't deny that the pop has increased significantly, lots of players we used to never see before. I think once the meta becomes more defined the quality of BGs will decrease, but they're not terrible yet on Xbox NA

    Déjà vu anyone? Evrey single patch there is a group of doomsayers predicting quick end to pvp. Then the devs react to these panickers and nerf the s*** out of anything workable to smooth the feelings of cry babies. Omg this never ends.

    B is for Bungler's Bane.

    We should try and organise a mass walk out over Xbox, Ps4 & PC and cancel our eso plus for 1 month, Hit them where it hurts. Bet they would bloody sort something out then.

    The issue isn't even about nerfs or something being OP.
    The game isn't working try reading.

    Did you even read the post?

    The load screens on Na PS4 are constant and endless.

    I died in front of a keep and got resurrected. Walked 2 steps and the keep flipped. 15 mins load screen closed application. Relogged. When I spawned in I was dead inside the enemy keep so I revive at gate. 15 min load screen closed application. Relog again and travel to drakelowe. ANOTHER 15 min load screen. Closed application. Played another game. This can't continue for much longer. It was already low population on the main campaign and completely empty everywhere else.

    you say the 'complete arrogance of the devs' but then you think they must respond to you everytime you post. maybe, just maybe, try being a bit nicer, or calmer. because nothing makes them want to chip in more than some internet rager whose already abusing them and will do so more if they appear.

    even if it was explained - in all the gory miniscule details - would having that knowledge really make that big of a difference?

    continuous load screens and getting kicked from the server are still: continuous load screens and getting kicked from the server...

    Edit: right now when you die - don't wait 15 minutes for the load screen before closing and reopening the app (or traveling in and out of a guest campaign - haven't tried that one, but, will later)...

    Haha sorry all. I did read some parts and instantly jumped into conclusion. Carry on PS4! I leave this thread but agree that you deserve better than that.
